How to prevent Debian Buster from hibernating?
by Geoff_L from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4QK4P)
One of my servers suffered a hard disk crash so I bit the bullet and fitted a new SSD onto which I did a netinst of Debian 10 and chose the Gnome desktop. In the Settings->Power UI dialog, I've turned off Automatic Suspend but the machine still goes into 'hibernation' (is this the same as 'suspend') after a short time. I have a virtual machine running on this host, so the host has at least one active process all the time.
How can I stop this machine from 'going to sleep'? Any help gratefully received.
